Squeaky Panel??
 
Hi guys. I need help and advice yet again. I was just cleaning my car just now and I noticed a problem. The panel (quarter panel?) right below where the gas pump hole is not properly connected? Upon pressing it slightly with my hands, I can hear squeaky sounds. Please help and advice. I tried looking under the panel where the mudguards are and I can see a small hole which I presume is used to bolt on to the car. However, there were no bolts on that particular hole. I went to the other side of the car to see if there's the same problem but there isn't. Appears to be only the right side.

I believe my BRZ squeaks on that same panel as yours:)

It sounds like a simple issue with the bumper cover, but it is hard to tell from your description. A picture would help.

So, is it right where the panels meet?

around there. very hard to explain. its only on where the panels are joined together.
and if u press it slightly, you can feel it moving a LITTLE bit.

I assume it is the lower "panel" you feel moving. That is the bumper cover. If it is a fastener (clip or screw) missing, it should be an easy fix.

the problem is that you bought a $25000 car.

no need to be offensive. when you buy a cheap car, you get a cheap car squeaks, rattles and all.

oh so its ok when you're offensive? i honestly hate people like you. it's perfectly fine when you do it to someone else but when someone does it back to you, you bitch out.

Good post fatoni. It is what it is.

where was i being offensive? im just saying that the frs is a budget sports car. toyota chose to spend the few dollars they had on the things that made this one of the most important cars of the last 10 years. there is a reason why the cayman is an extra 30k. im not cursing, im not attacking you personally, and im not putting words in your mouth.

You have a good point, but its best you word it in a more "friendly" way.
